If you own a PS4 and are considering upgrading the standard 5400 rpm 500 GB hard drive that comes with the console (for capacity or speed reasons), here's a good video that covers the different options as well as the performance gains.


Drives reviewed in the video:

Hybrid hard drive: Seagate 1TB Solid State Hybrid Drive SATA 6Gbps 64MB Cache 2.5-Inch ST1000LM014, $110

Solid state drive: Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Single Unit Version Internal Solid State Drive MZ-7TE250BW, $175

Not mentioned, but performs very well: HGST Travelstar 7K1000 2.5-Inch 1TB 7200 RPM SATA III 32MB Cache Internal Hard Drive 0J22423, $90
